The Rollerdor RD10X2ELL Control Box is an installation guide for roller garage doors, specifically designed for use with a wireless safety edge kit (optical edge). This control box serves as the central unit for operating and managing the functions of a roller garage door, including motor control, safety features, and remote access.
Function Description:
The control box facilitates the opening and closing of roller garage doors. It integrates with a motor, power supply, and a safety brake system (either wired or wireless optical edge). The unit is designed to be mounted on a wall at a comfortable height for operation, away from the reach of children. It supports both left-hand and right-hand motor configurations, with specific wiring instructions provided for each.
Key functions include:
- Motor Control: Manages the motor's open and close operations, with dedicated terminals for motor open, common, and close wires.
- Power Supply: Connects to a 240V power supply for operation, with terminals for live and neutral connections.
- Safety Edge Integration: Crucial for safety, the control box integrates with a safety edge system. This can be a wired safety brake or a wireless optical edge. The system is designed to detect obstructions and prevent the door from closing on them.
- Courtesy Light Output: Provides a 240V output for a courtesy light (up to 300W max. lamp), illuminating the garage area when the door is in use.
- Push-button Control: Supports external push-buttons for step-by-step operation (N.O.) and an emergency STOP function (N.C.).
- Remote Control/Keypad Integration: Allows for wireless operation via transmitters (remotes) and a wireless keypad, enabling users to open and close the door remotely or via an access code.
- Limit Setting: Features P1 (UP) and P2 (Down) buttons for setting the motor's open and close limits, ensuring the door stops at the desired positions.
- Hold-to-Run Operation: A safety feature that requires continuous pressing of a button for the door to move, useful during initial setup or troubleshooting.
- Safety Edge Exclusion Zone: Allows for setting an exclusion zone (e.g., 50mm before hitting the floor) to prevent the safety edge from triggering unnecessarily on uneven floors, while disabling the alarm in this specific zone.
Important Technical Specifications:
- Power Input: 240V~ (for power supply and courtesy light).
- Courtesy Light Output: 240V, 300W max. lamp.
- Motor Connections: Dedicated terminals for motor open, common, and close wires.
- Safety Edge Connections: Terminals for wired safety brake (Brown, Green, White wires) or wireless safety edge input (Brown, Green, White wires).
- Push-button Connections: Common (COM), step-by-step (N.O.), emergency STOP (N.C.), and emergency STOP common.
- Dip Switches: Control board includes dip switches for configuration (e.g., dip switch 1 ON, dip switch 2 OFF for specific functionalities).
- Transmitter Programming: Supports programming of multiple transmitters (remotes).
- Wireless Keypad: Operates with a 9V alkaline battery, features a factory access code "12345" which can be changed to a custom 5-digit code.
Usage Features:
- Easy Installation: The receiver box is designed for wall mounting, with clear instructions for securing it and connecting cables.
- User-Friendly Programming: Simple steps for programming transmitters and changing the wireless keypad's access code, often involving pressing and holding buttons until specific beeps are heard.
- Visual Indicators: GREEN LED on the base rail unit indicates proper wiring and operation.
- Audible Feedback: The control unit provides various beeps (continuous, intermittent, short, long, faster) to indicate status, programming success, errors, or safety warnings.
- Adjustable Limits: P1 (UP) and P2 (Down) buttons allow for precise setting of the door's open and close limits.
- Hold-to-Run Mode: Can be activated for safety during setup or troubleshooting, requiring continuous button press for door movement.
- Safety Edge Exclusion Zone: A configurable feature to prevent false triggers from uneven floors, enhancing operational convenience.
- Wireless Keypad Access: Provides secure access with a customizable 5-digit code, allowing for opening and closing the door without a remote.
Maintenance Features:
- Troubleshooting Guide: The manual includes a comprehensive troubleshooting section with acoustic signals from the control unit and their corresponding meanings and solutions. This helps in diagnosing common issues such as faulty control unit, motor problems, radio receiver issues, safety test failures, and limit switch errors.
- Visual Inspection: Instructions to check the GREEN LED on the base rail unit and ensure secure wiring.
- Fuse Protection: The system is protected by fuses, and troubleshooting includes checking if the fuse blows.
- Motor Thermal Protection: The control unit can detect motor overheating, and the troubleshooting guide advises waiting for the motor to cool down if thermal protection is activated.
- Safety Device Override: In case safety devices (except TB input) are defective or activated, the door can still be operated by keeping the command button pressed for more than 5 seconds, which switches the control unit to hold-to-run mode. This allows for emergency operation or moving the door for maintenance.
- Battery Replacement: The wireless keypad uses a 9V alkaline battery, which can be replaced as part of routine maintenance.
- Wiring Checks: Regular checks of motor direction and wiring connections (brown and black motor wires over terminals 5 & 7) are suggested for specific issues.
- Limit Switch Adjustment: The ability to reset or adjust limit switches is a key maintenance feature for ensuring proper door operation.
